cycling jersey's
How snugly should a cycling jersey fit? I 'm new to road cycling (riding on the weekends 20+miles and commuting to work round trip 11+miles 4 days a week for the last month) and I'm starting to drop some weight, should I get skin tight or regular fitting stuff?

Steel is real, baby!
They should be snug, but not too tight.

I like mine on the tighter side (they stay in place) but it's really personal preference. If you think a looser fit is more comfortable, nothing wrong with that.

get skin tight; the humiliation will make you lose more weight. the stuffed sausage look will grow on you.

not true. i like tight because it keeps the moobs pressed down like a bra. snug accentuates.

Snug is best. Prevents things falling out of your pockets on a fast descent.
